If you bomb our ammo and weapons depot, radioactive fallout will rain down over Europe.

It's a twist on the strategy of embedding terrorists in with civilians for protection.

releasing radiation and many of their soldiers got infected. Russian lies just like their counter part the Republican party. Maybe the intelligence knows what happened to them and ain't telling, I don't know, but alas, Russia is very close and they are putting their Mother land in extreme danger as well as the world.

It's obvious to me at least that Putin doesn't care about life, period, which again sounds very much like the Republican party.

Anywho, I think Ukraine will prevail although they have endure pure evil and is living in hell.

8. Location of Europe's Largest Nuclear Power Plant

is in Ukraine. I had to look it up, because it wasn't clear to me where the "largest" nuclear power plant was located, not mentioned in the op.

What is the significance of this power plant?

The Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, built between 1984 and 1995, is the largest nuclear power plant in Europe and the ninth largest in the world. It has six reactors, each generating 950MW, and a total output of 5,700MW, enough energy for roughly 4m homes.

In normal times it produces one-fifth of Ukraine’s electricity and almost half the energy generated by the country’s nuclear power facilities.

]The plant is located in south-east Ukraine in Enerhodar on the banks of the Kakhovka reservoir on the Dnieper river. It is about 200km from the contested Donbas region and 550km south-east of Kyiv.
